Lawmakers in China have passed a new foreign investment law aimed at easing global concerns about China's business practices. It includes a measure to discourage officials from pressuring foreign companies to hand over technology, a move widely interpreted as extending an olive branch to the United States in the ongoing trade dispute. Plus, Boeing has suspended deliveries of its best-selling 737 MAX planes as investigators start examining the black boxes from the Ethiopian Airlines crash.
